This syndicated animated series starred a little purple shape-shifting alien named Widget (voiced by Russi Taylor) who lived in a cave on the planet Earth and was known as a “World Watcher”.
He had come to Earth to help solve some of the planet’s most pressing ecological and environmental problems – and to have some fun with his sidekick Mega Brain (a floating pink head voiced by Jim Cummings), his mischievous cousin Half-Pint (Cree Summer) and his earth friends, brothers Brian (Kath Soucie) and Kevin (Dana Hill).
Widget had to contend with villains such as Dr Dante, Mega Slank, and Widget’s evil twin, Ratchet (voiced by Tress MacNeille).
The animation was produced by the South Korean studio Sei Young Animation.
